Default Wheel badges

Is there a good source and guide on replacing the centre gap badge on the e60/e61 (I have the e61 SE (ie: non-M sport).

Is iteasy to do, are they just stickers?

I found this seller: BMW Wheel Badges Centre 70mm E34 E36 E39 E46 E30 E60 | eBay

I couldn't find a post talking about this, an sure I missed it though.

I grabbed a set of black carbon fiber center caps from another forum member. They look great on my Monaco Blue e60. I'm pulling them off and putting on the original BMW Blue caps and will put the CF caps them on my soon to arrive 2013 535xDrive.

As for where to get them - some rep wheels require a slightly different size center cap. Check that when you buy on-line ... and some eBay caps are (only) 'fair' quality. Some on-line sellers might have you thinking you'll get the entire cap - instead only send you the stickers ... that's what your Bay listing is for!

Last but not least - Try one of the Forum vendors - might cost only a few $$'s more for much better quality.

Thought I'd share what I found, instead of the stickers it seems it's a cap...

BMW WHEEL CENTRE CAPS 1 3 5 6 7 SERIES X1 X3 X5 M3 M5 Z4 E39 E36 E60 | eBay

Might be specific to my e61 but thought I'd share if it helps someone else?

Cheers
